About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1843. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER IX. THE LIVER AND THE GALL-BLADDER. 191. Heister. "The liver is a very large viscus, of a red color, situated in the right hypochondrium, and designed for the secretion of bile.

The arteries for the nutrition of the liver, are, 1. from the coeliac; 2. from the cystic arteries; 3. from the diaphragmatic; 4. and sometimes from the superior mesenteric artery.
